Pont Aberarth Pont Aberarth a adeiladwyd yn 1849 ar ol i'r bont flaenorol gael ei dinsitrio gan lif yn 1846. Llifa Afon Arth - un o nifer o afonydd a enwir ar ol anifeilaid yng Nghymru - i mewn i Fae Ceredigion gerllaw. Pont Aberarth was built in 1849 after the previous bridge was destroyed by a flood. 'Arth' is the Welsh name for 'bear' - one of many river names in Wales named after animals. The river flows into Cardigan Bay a short distance away.

The rear half of a bus near Aberaeron This section of bus has been sited here, I think, to act as either a commentary box or admission / access control for a horse-show, or similar event. There are paddocks with horses adjacent and in the past the farm may have hosted such things. The black plastic bin is half full of beer bottles. The yellow porcelain loo (just visible right of shot) has just been fly-tipped I think.

Part of the graveyard at Llanddewi Aberarth A significant number of the graves here carry the title 'Master Mariner' below the names of the male deceased, obviously the resting place of choice for those seafarers of the locality, and with its position here I can see why.
